King Manor Care And Rehabilitation Center

Neptune, NJ · Monmouth County

CMS 1/5 120 beds For-profit Medicaid
Nurse hours
2.92 /day
Staff turnover
54%
Serious cites
0

King Manor runs lean on the people who actually care for residents. At 2.92 nurse staffing hours per resident day, it sits roughly a quarter below the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 15% below its own weekday level, so your Sunday afternoon visit may look different from a Tuesday morning. Staff turnover runs 53.8%, higher than the 45.8% national figure, which means the aides and nurses who know your family member are likelier to leave within the year. The 13 deficiencies on record include none at the harm or jeopardy level, and the last inspection was October 2024. Inspection and quality scores hold up; staffing is where the gaps show.

Nurse hours

Staff turnover
53%
Serious cites
0

Family Of Caring At Park Ridge is a 210-bed for-profit home in Bergen County, and the numbers split in two directions. The care side looks decent on paper, four out of five stars on CMS quality measures, but that's where the good news mostly stops. Nurse staffing runs 3.27 hours per resident day, roughly 15% under the national average, and it thins out further on weekends. Staff turnover sits at 52.7%, well above the 45.8% national figure, which means the people showing up to care for residents are often new to the building. Then there's the inspection record: 31 deficiencies, two serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and a $133,120 fine. The most recent inspection was January 2025, so this is current, not stale history. Worth asking hard questions before you decide.

Jewish Home Of Central New York

Staff turnover

Serious cites
0

The staffing average at Jewish Home of Central New York looks fine on paper, 3.90 nurse hours per resident day, just above the national figure of 3.86, but that headline number hides a real drop on weekends, when coverage runs roughly 19% below what the home staffs on weekdays. The inspection record is the bigger concern: 42 deficiencies, four tied to abuse and two serious enough to put residents in harm's way, plus a $121,573 fine and a March 2026 inspection that earned a single star. Compare that to the quality measure rating of 5 out of 5, and you have a home where the charted clinical numbers look strong while the day-to-day oversight record does not.

Staff turnover

Woodcrest runs on 2.66 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a third below the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 9% below its own weekday numbers. That thin staffing shows up in the CMS staffing rating of 2 out of 5. The inspection record carries 19 deficiencies, three of them abuse-related, though none rose to harm or jeopardy level, and the state fined the home three times for a total of $13,985. Turnover sits at 47.2%, essentially in line with the national 45.8%. Ownership is for-profit, through a limited liability company. The most recent inspection was July 9, 2025, so the record is current.

San Simeon By The Sound sits in Greenport, and its numbers tell a split story. The quality measures look decent at 4 out of 5 stars, but that's where the good news mostly stops: nurse staffing runs 3.46 hours per resident day, roughly 10% under the national average, and weekends dip another 6% below its own weekday levels. Turnover hits 61.5% against a national 45.8%, which means the people caring for residents are constantly changing. The inspection record is the real concern. Sixteen deficiencies, four at harm or jeopardy level, four tied to abuse, and $140,843 in fines across four penalties. Its last inspection was September 2024. For-profit corporate ownership. Ask about direct-care staffing on weekends and how they handle the abuse-related findings before you decide.

Achieve Rehab and Nursing Facility is a 140-bed for-profit home in Liberty run by a limited liability company, and its inspection record is the part that should worry you most: 34 deficiencies on file, including two tied to abuse and one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level. The health inspection rating sits at 1 out of 5, though the quality measure rating is a more respectable 3. Staffing is thin, 3.33 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 14% under the national average, with weekends about 12% lighter than weekdays, and turnover at 48% runs slightly above the national rate. The most recent inspection was in October 2024.

Brooklyn-Queens Nursing Home runs 140 certified beds as a for-profit corporation, and its staffing sits about 2% under the national average at 3.77 nurse hours per resident day. Weekends dip roughly 9% below its own weekday coverage, and annual turnover hits 50.6% against a 45.8% national figure, meaning the aides and nurses your family member sees may change often. Inspections are recent and clean at the harm level: 20 deficiencies on record, none causing harm or jeopardy, though three are abuse-related and one fine totals $141,232. The four-star inspection rating reflects that survey history; staffing and quality measures each land at three stars.

Nurse hours

Staff turnover

Serious cites

Momentous Health At Franklin runs 79 certified beds under individual for-profit ownership, and the numbers that matter most here are thin. Nurse staffing sits at 3.23 hours per resident day, roughly 16% under the national average, and weekends drop another 9% below what the home already provides on weekdays, so coverage is weakest exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 51.8% tops the national figure of 45.8%, meaning the aides and nurses caring for residents are often new to the building. The inspection record is the harder read: 36 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse. A 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating and a 1-out-of-5 staffing rating reflect that pattern, and the last survey was in September 2025.

Alpine Nursing And Rehabilitation Center

Xenia, OH · Greene County

CMS 3/5 99 beds For-profit Medicaid
Nurse hours

Staff turnover
54%
Serious cites
0

Alpine runs on thinner staffing than most homes, about 3.5 nurse hours per resident each day, roughly 9% under the national average, and weekends drop another 10% below what the home itself staffs during the week. That matters because turnover sits at 54.3% against a national 45.8%, so the aides and nurses cycling through may be new to the building even when shifts are covered. The inspection record backs this up: 50 deficiencies, two at harm or jeopardy level and five tied to abuse, with a $28,130 fine and a May 2025 inspection still recent. The 4/5 quality measure rating reflects charted care items, not the hands-on coverage families actually feel.

The Oaks Healthcare Center runs about 3.07 nursing hours per resident day, roughly a fifth below the national average of 3.86, and its staff turnover sits at 57.3% against a national 45.8%, meaning more than half its caregivers left within the year. State inspectors cited 37 deficiencies on the current record, three of them abuse-related, though none rose to the harm or jeopardy level; that February 2025 inspection is recent. Weekend staffing runs slightly above the home's own weekday level, which is unusual. The for-profit limited liability company that owns it holds two out of five stars for both health inspections and staffing, and one out of five for quality measures.

Southern Hills runs 106 beds in Tulsa under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing comes in at 3.85 hours per resident day, essentially level with the national average of 3.86. That's the good news. The trouble sits elsewhere: staff turnover hits 84.8 percent a year, nearly double the national rate of 45.8 percent, meaning the people providing care keep changing. Its current record shows 22 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and three tied to abuse, plus a $15,766 fine. Weekend staffing dips about 4 percent below weekdays. The last inspection was November 2024, so the picture is fairly recent.

North County Center runs 3.42 nursing hours per resident day, roughly 11% under the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage drops about 6% below its own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 54.7% against a national 45.8%, so nearly six in ten employees left over the past year. The current record shows 26 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and five tied to abuse, with one fine of $17,641 and a health inspection dated August 2025. All three CMS star ratings, health inspections, quality measures, and staffing, come in at 2 out of 5. For a 119-bed for-profit home in Collinsville, the pattern is thin staffing, heavy turnover, and documented problems that go beyond paperwork.

Maple Healthcare and Rehab runs 29 certified beds in Fairland, and its nurse staffing works out to 3.87 hours per resident day, essentially identical to the national average of 3.86. Turnover is the bigger concern: 68.8% of staff leave each year against a national average of 45.8%, and weekend coverage drops roughly 10% below weekday levels. The current record shows 50 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, but three tied to abuse. A health inspection in January 2025 and a 3 out of 5 star inspection rating suggest the home gets looked at and mostly holds up, though the 1 out of 5 quality measure rating and corporate ownership are worth asking about directly.

Columbia Basin Care Facility runs a county-owned, 90-bed home in The Dalles, and its staffing numbers come with a catch. The 4.13 nurse hours per resident day sit about 7% above the national average, but weekends drop roughly 13% below its own weekday level, and turnover runs 68.2% against a national 45.8%, so the people covering those hours are constantly changing. The inspection record is the harder problem: 35 deficiencies, including three at harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, with one fine of $52,030 and a survey dated February 2026. The federal stars land at 1 for health inspections, 1 for staffing, and 2 for quality measures.

Garden Spring runs 3.36 nurse hours per resident day, about 13% under the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage dips roughly 5% below its own weekday levels. That thin staffing shows in the numbers: 55.9% annual turnover, well above the 45.8% national figure, meaning more than half the nursing staff leaves each year. The inspection record has 46 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, plus a $15,753 fine. Last survey was October 2024, so nothing here is stale. For-profit corporate ownership at 173 beds, with a 2/5 on inspections and a 2/5 on staffing, tells you where the pressure sits.

Nurse staffing at Edenbrook Of Greenwood Hill runs 3.61 hours per resident day, roughly 6% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 7% below its own weekday level, so coverage is thinnest exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover sits at 62.2% against a national 45.8%, meaning most of the people caring for residents weren't there a year ago. The inspection record shows 59 deficiencies, including 3 at the harm or jeopardy level and 8 tied to abuse, with $54,532 in fines across two penalties. The last inspection was August 2025.

Parkhouse runs a 467-bed building in Royersford, and the staffing numbers are the first thing I'd want you to see. It provides 2.97 nursing hours per resident per day against a national average of 3.86, roughly a quarter less care time than the typical home, and weekends drop about 7% below its own weekday level, which matters because that's when families often visit and problems surface. Staff turnover sits at 53% against a national 45.8%, so the aides and nurses working with residents are changing over fairly often. The inspection record shows 23 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, with the most recent inspection in May 2025. It's a for-profit limited liability company, and the health inspection rating is 2 out of 5.

Maplewood runs 180 beds in Philadelphia under individual for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.11 hours per resident day, roughly 19% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop about 10% below the home's own weekday coverage, and annual turnover hits 54.7% against a national 45.8%, so the people providing care keep changing while the hours per resident stay thin. The record shows 45 deficiencies, two of them at harm or jeopardy level and two abuse-related, plus $76,483 in fines across two penalties. The last inspection was August 28, 2025, so the picture is current rather than stale. Quality measures score well, but that's a narrow slice of what families actually live with day to day.

Ridgeway Manor runs on 2.87 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a quarter below the national average, and its weekend staffing barely dips from weekday levels, so the thin coverage isn't a weekend problem, it's the baseline. The inspection record is where the real trouble sits: 30 deficiencies, three of them serious enough to cause harm or put residents in jeopardy, plus four tied to abuse. A one-out-of-five inspection rating with the most recent survey dated April 2026 gives you a picture of a building that has repeatedly fallen short on the fundamentals. Staff turnover, at 44.6%, is essentially at the national rate.

White Oak Estates runs 88 certified beds in Spartanburg under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.62 hours per resident day, roughly 6% under the national average, with weekends about 9% thinner than its own weekdays. Annual staff turnover is 57.1% against a national 45.8%, so the people caring for your family member are changing more often than at the typical home. The current inspection record carries 12 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, plus a single $8,827 fine. The last inspection was March 5, 2026, so that record is recent.
